aliasing question in UNIX
Folks;
I know this might sound stupid, but Can i alias a web link to another web link in a UNIX server?
Let say i have a web link named http://test.new.com/wiki
Can i alias that so when i click on it or i type it in the browser address it opens but the link in the browser say something like: http://test.new.com (without the /wiki at the end)
Is that possible?
Help please

Hi,
is it normal, that the IP alias (service IP) can't be seen with ifconfig -a , as eth0:1 for example
the IP is on the node, you can ping it, and open ports for that IP
look at this:
# ip addr

Being able to mark in an alias definition a point of minimal abbreviation, an old feature of VAX/VMS shell (DCL) would be really nice in modern *nix shells.
In DCL you used to be able to define an alias (in its own weird syntax) which would be something like this:

GET_END(3) Library Functions Manual GET_END(3)
NAME
get_end, get_etext, get_edata - get values of UNIX link editor defined symbols
SYNOPSIS
#include <mach-o/getsect.h>
unsigned long get_end();
unsigned long get_etext();
unsigned long get_edata();
DESCRIPTION
These routines provide a stopgap measure to programs that use the UNIX link-editor defined symbols. Use of these routines is very strongly
discouraged. The problem is that any program that is using UNIX link editor defined symbols (_end, _etext or _edata) is making assumptions
that the program has the memory layout of a UNIX program.
This is an incorrect assumption for a program built by the Mach-O link editor. The reason that these routines are provided is that if very
minimal assumptions about the layout are used and the default format and memory layout of the Mach-O link editor is used to build the pro-
gram, some things may work by using the values returned by these routines in place of the addresses of their UNIX link-editor defined sym-
bols. So use at your own risk, and only if you know what your doing. Or better yet, convert the program to use the appropriate Mach or
Mach-O functions. If you are trying to allocate memory use vm_allocate(2), if you are trying to find out about your address space use
vm_region(2) and if you are trying to find out where your program is loaded use the dyld(3) functions.
The values of the UNIX link-editor defined symbols _etext, _edata and _end are returned by the routines get_etext, get_edata, and get_end
respectively. In a Mach-O file they have the following values: get_etext returns the first address after the (__TEXT,__text) section, note
this my or may not be the only section in the __TEXT segment. get_edata returns the first address after the (__DATA,__data) section, note
this my or may not be the last non-zero fill section in the __DATA segment. get_end returns the first address after the last segment in
the executable, note a shared library may be loaded at this address.
